Quiddler
The rules are brutal, but the rewards are worth it in this card game that works a bit
like Scrabble. Although there is a solitary version of the game for one player, you
can play with up to eight. Cards containing letters of the alphabet and special
combinations of letters are dealt in increasing number each time the dealer completes
a round. Once you've collected your share, you can discard and pick up a new card with
each turn. The object is to turn all the letters in your possession into dictionary-proof
words while leaving one stray card as a final discard. You want to be the first to
accomplish the goal, of course, but there is a scoring system that makes the play
competitive for everyone. One nice element is the cards themselves: the letter design
is based on beautiful artwork from Celtic manuscripts. This card game is a 1999
Parents' Choice Silver Award winner.
Number Of Players: 1 to 8
Recommended Ages: 8 and up

A fast paced ingenious new card game. Its double deck contains 5 suits (the stars are new),
but it has no aces or twos. This unique deck gives you many more options for arranging your
hand into sets and sequences--the challenge is to see them make the right combinations, be the
first to go out, then watch the others scramble as they get one last chance to cut their losses.
